As seen on a series of postcards issued in France under the &#8216;Dessin Jullian&#8217; imprint, by artist Bernard Jullian and presumably self-published. I&#8217;ve been unable to discover dates or any biographical data on Jullian, but the cards appear to be classed as vintage &mdash; so perhaps before 2000. These are part of a colour postcard series that included portraits-from-photos of Bram Stoker, Arthur C. Clarke, Poe and other famous writers of the imagination. I&#8217;m usually averse to portraits-from-photos, which are nearly always so obviously portraits-from-photos, but here the artist has evoked something of Lovecraft&#8217;s arch intelligence.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jurn.link\/tentaclii\/oldimages\/c1-carte-postale-dessin-jullian-auteur-sf-lovecraft.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jurn.link\/tentaclii\/oldimages\/c1-carte-postale-dessin-jullian-auteur-sf-lovecraft.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"424\" height=\"586\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-48316\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Also R.E.
